Someday--NOT 2024, obvi--I'd like to see Hunter Biden run for president as a convicted felon...
...just to phuque with republicans, who full-throatedly support their soon-to-be-convicted felon.
Have I told you how much I hate these people? - Mike Malloy. It is every thinking person’s responsibility not to side with his or her executioners. - Albert Camus. Popular democracy anywhere threatens fascism everywhere. - The Scallion. A fascist junta of neocons using George W. Bush as its shill has taken over America by bloodless coup. What will it take for us to stage a revolution and take our country back? - Dot Calm. Drive a hybrid. Leave a lighter footprint on the planet. - Dot Calm.
Like Granny D, I have watched my own beloved country change, and I am angry beyond words about what I see. I grew up seeing America as the equivalent of the movie good guy, the hero in the white hat who came to the rescue of those in need around the world. I have watched in silent horror as the corporations, the captains and the kings of industry, used a comparatively small outlay of cash to buy the Republicans to use as their shills. George W. Bush is the puppet cowboy-king of shills, the proverbial emperor with no clothes. Every day, I watch these evil men legalize, legitimize, and institutionalize robbing the poor to pay the rich. They are carving up America like a giant carcass and doling out choice chunks of its meat to themselves and their cronies. Since the Democrats have been sipping at the same corporate teat where the Republicans have been gorging for the past generation, the fascists are free to do their worst; there is no longer any opposition. There is no one left to stand up for the rights of the American people, the Constitution, or the democracy, which I fear will be replaced by a fascist dictatorship in my lifetime. Wake up, America: we need a REVOLUTION NOW!

Whatever we do, let's not give them the war.
VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO.

Here's what I've noticed...
Weak republicans support tr*mp; weak democrats abandon President Biden.
In both cases, the weak are too weak to support the strong--both only support the weak.
Ain't that somethin'?
AOC and Bernie are strong.
They both understand that President Biden is the most progressive, most effective president we've had in living memory.
Both are old enough to remember what this country did to Hillary--who was eminently qualified, caring, and capable--when she ran.
Both know what the country would do to Kamala if she attempted to run in Joe's stead--not that there is any mechanism for her to do so.
Both know that putting Joe back in the White House in 2024 puts Joe's administration, which has performed perhaps not perfectly but exceptionally well compared even to other Democratic administrations, and Kamala back in the White House in 2024.
Both know that putting Joe back in the White House in 2024 will give him and Kamala the chance to grow her role and showcase her abilities, thus potentially lining her up for the presidency in 2028.
Both know that weak democrats play into fascist media narratives and craving for chaos.
Both know that weak democrats are as fascist at heart as the weak republicans are.
Like weak republicans, weak democrats only care about their own individual money and power--America be damned.
Fortunately, even though the weak are loud--of course they are! They're panicking, as weak ones do--there are many more of us strong Americans. Strong Democrats and even strong Republicans who want America to remain the liberal democracy that it has been for decades. Strong Democrats and even strong Republicans who want to see more fairness and equality, more accountability for the rich and corporate elites, and more power in the hands of those who are too often marginalized and thus who need it most.
Stand with the strong ones, friends, and for the love of Pete, don't fear the weak ones. There are way more of us, and we have way more to offer.
